Sulfur compounds cause “off-odors” in wine, so winemakers want to know the odor threshold, the lowest concentration of a compound that the human nose can detect. The odor threshold for dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in trained wine tasters is about 25 micrograms per liter of wine (μg/l). The untrained noses of consumers may be less sensitive, however. Here are the DMS odor thresholds for 10 untrained students: 31 31 43 36 23 34 32 30 20 24 Give a 95% confidence interval for the mean DMS odor threshold among all students. Is there evidence that the mean threshold for untrained tasters is greater than 25 μg/l? State the hypotheses. Is there evidence that the mean threshold for untrained tasters is greater than 25 μg/l? What is the test statistic?

1. Can balloons hold more air or more water before bursting? A student purchased a large bag of 12-inch balloons. He randomly selected 10 balloons from the bag and then randomly assigned half of them to be filled with air until bursting and the other half to be filled with water until bursting. He used devices to measure the amount of air and water was dispensed until the balloons burst. Here's the data: Air (ft') Water (ft) 0.52 0.44 0.58 0.41 0.50 0.55 0.46 0.61 0.38 0.45 Does the data give convincing evidence air filled balloons can attain a greater volume than water filled balloons?
